One of the reasons we got public education in the first was that the factory owners needed workers who could learn how to operate complex machines and do math. Easier to get the public to pay than teach them on the owner's dime.
Yeah, but then they moved all the factories to other countries. The public is now just a burden to them for wanting corporations to pay their fair share in taxes.
